I consumed the potion that Ivy gave me. It was bitter and tasted a lot like cough syrup. I shrunk down to the size of a mouse and entered the walls. The groaning was almost too intense for my tiny ears to handle; I think my head might explode if it got any louder.215Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1IXhaFfcs
Ivy crawled through the wall with me and she barely made it. If it came down to the worst case scenario, she was capable of disassembling herself. She smiled politely, putting her two twig arms together. "I guess I'm the older sister now, Saira!"215Please respect copyright.PENANAXd7Zo715J6
"Only until I can stop this awful noise."215Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZEGnK6pdx
The walls had a long path of pipes inside of it, and I climbed my way to the top. I noticed a small tent in the distance, and something was crawling out of it. "Why does that beetle have a tent, and why is it living in my metal walls?"215Please respect copyright.PENANAi2cLQRquqC
"Well, some beetles do live in walls, but I think this one is just unique."215Please respect copyright.PENANA9mb6Z3ABdd
"Will you two loud mouths keep it down!" the beetle screamed at us. "It's already bad enough hearing that blasted crying!"215Please respect copyright.PENANA2xuRINIimN
"I came here to deal with it, do you know where it's coming from?"215Please respect copyright.PENANAmFXMwAXajo
"No, and I don't want to. It sounds like it would eat me alive in a heartbeat. I try to stay away from hungry predators, and you should do the same."215Please respect copyright.PENANADPRaFYuuZW
"No can do. I've dealt with crazier things than this."215Please respect copyright.PENANAwXsMMYTZRD
"Yeah, and I can see how dealing with things has fried that pink blob of yours."215Please respect copyright.PENANAq3VkbzRuiy
"You mean the brain?"215Please respect copyright.PENANAVyZaXsLtf6
"What other pink blob could I be referring to? Actually, don't answer that. I don't want to learn any more about your terrible species."215Please respect copyright.PENANA8G21Ucp7xf
"Just so you know, our species has a history of eating insects."215Please respect copyright.PENANAjaiodoUhYZ
The beetle fled back into its tent. "Just continue forward and you should come across it."215Please respect copyright.PENANAy8uTKMilIR
"Saira, stop being mean to the beetle."215Please respect copyright.PENANA0D464uCYhr
"It was being mean first!"215Please respect copyright.PENANA6KcouxmPYd
We continued our journey through the wall. I stayed close to Ivy as the walls faded into a dark, rotten green. "We'll be okay, Saira."215Please respect copyright.PENANA6vB0csV84w
